Problems with estimating DSGE Model

Postby cvorm » Fri Oct 28, 2016 8:44 pm

I'm having some troubles estimating parameter values for a DSGE Model using Bayesian Estimation. I get the following problem notice:

________________
warning: delete: no such file: dummy_static.mex

erase_compiled_function at line 23 column 5
dummy at line 185 column 1
dynare at line 180 column 1
warning: delete: no such file: dummy_dynamic.mex

You did not declare endogenous variables after the estimation/calib_smoother command.

Detected XLS interfaces: warning: No Java support found (no Java JRE? no Java pkg installed AND loaded?)

Loading 61 observations from outputit.xlsx

error: Estimation:: There are complex values in the data! Probably a wrong (log) transformation...

Is it possible that you can tell me, what is wrong. Is it my code (mod. file)? Or is it the data-import from excel that causes troubles?


Kind regards

This seems to be a problem with your system. Which operating system and Matlab/Octave version are you using?

I am using Windows 10, and the Octave version is the 4.0.3. Should i try to reinstall the Octave program?

Best regards

Dynare is not compatible with Octave 4 at the current stage. You would have to use 3.8.1.
